For a couple days now I have been obsessed with watching Audrey Hepburn's films. Though the plots of the movies are always interesting, I find myself looking at Audrey's fashion style. After watching Breakfast at Tiffany's I actually went to Forever 21 in hunt of her signature sunglasses. I found ones very similar and put them on as soon as I walked out the door.

Her fashion style is timeless. Especially now with vintage fashion coming back into style, we can all learn from Audrey Hepburn's classic style.

1. Her striped sweaters

A classic fitted striped sweater works perfectly with any solid color pant.

2. Her jeans

Audrey's high-waisted jeans with a black belt along with a bright red sweater simply proves how fashion is timeless.

3. Her sunglasses, hat and peacoat

These are the famous sunglasses I bought! Along with a staple red peacoat and furry hat this outfit looks perfect.

4. All black everything

A huge black hat and fitted dress looks elegant on everyone. Especially Audrey Hepburn!

5. All pink everything

This photograph is beautiful. I love anything with colorful flowers especially Audrey's contrasting light pink dress.

6. Cropped pants


The simplicity of Audrey's outfit may not be for some women, but I love it! Cropped and fitted pants are very in style right now and I just picked up a pair.

7. A summer day

Checkered Print? This is so in style right now which proves how much of an influence Audrey Hepburn had on the world of fashion. Even over 50 years from now we look at her sense of fashion.

8. Yellow yellow

Even Audrey's shoes match her dress? What could be more perfect?

9. "Roman Holiday" style


I think every girl needs a skirt as blue as this one.

10. Striped...again!!

11. Flannel style


Nowadays, everyone is looking for that perfect flannel.

12. Matching jumpsuit

I would pay a lot of money to have this outfit! She looks amazing.

If you're ever in a style funk I strongly suggest you take a look at any of Audrey Hepburn's old photographs or movies!

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
